Kim Zolciak Eyeing RHOA Return – After Vowing to “Never” Come Back

Kim Zolciak had a change of heart.

For, after vowing to “never” return to the ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ the reality star has revealed that she’s open to hopping aboard the hit Bravo series once again.

Full story below…

Zolciak rose to prominence as part of the original cast of RHOA alongside the likes of Nene Leakes and Sheree Whitfield.

She dramatically exited during filming for season 5, which led to her family spin-off show ‘Don’t Be Tardy’ – which ran for eight seasons on Bravo.

A brief Housewives return in a cameo capacity during season 9 led to an official “Friend Of” role in season 10. The latter of which saw Zolciak fried like catfish by her castmates at the reunion for the milestone season.

Shortly after, she told TMZ that she would “never, never” return to RHOA again because it was “too much stress — unneeded stress.”

Executive Andy Cohen appeared to echo her sentiments, telling E! at the time:

“I think she’s done, yeah. [Kim] walked out of that reunion and I said, ‘Yeah, I’ve seen the last of that wig at these reunions.’ ”

However, time – and perhaps changing personal circumstances – appear to have caused a pivot.

Speaking during the promotional run for ‘Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets,’ Zolciak – who is in the midst of a divorce from Kroy Biermann and no longer has ‘Don’t Be Tardy’ on air – said:

“I know Porsha [Williams] is back, who I love to pieces and absolutely adore her. She’s hysterical. Happy for her and love that she’s back.”

She went on to add:

“I heard rumors Phaedra [Parks] might return, which I would be totally game for too because she’s amazing.”

Unpacking her rationale for a possible Housewives comeback, the 46-year-old candidly shared:

“I’ve been saying I would never return but, as I’m talking right now, I might think about it because these are two very funny and light-hearted fun people. Porsha and Phaedra might do it for me. We’ll see.”
